Chapter 2: Dark Deeds and Regret
Words just couldn't decide how I felt. I was so fucking pissed, I couldn't even think straight. My mind was just playing that phone conversation over and over again, and every time I'd hear it, I would get even more angry. The funny thing was I knew exactly what I was doing. I was on my way to Tori's house and I was going to stab that bitch so many times I'd lose count. The thought pleasured me, I mean, it's not like I hadn't thought about putting an end to that slut before and now that I had, what I felt was a reason to, I just couldn't wait to do it.
It was already dark and I could see a lot of cars on the road. Tori lived a good hour or so away from me by car, but I was going so fast, I felt I would be there in just a few minutes. I was mad at Beck, no furious at Beck. He had cheated on me with that skinny bitch? Oh but I was the stupid one. I had let him make me believe that nothing was going on between them when it was all happening probably right under my nose! Maybe he had been cheating on me for months and just finally got the balls to confess to me tonight. Man, I was so stupid! But it was alright. I was going to take Tori out of the picture and I would deal with Beck later. At least that's what I thought at the moment.
I was right. I did end up getting to Tori's place in almost half the time it would normally take me. I parked right in front. Before I got out of my car, I checked myself in the mirror. I'll admit, I looked like a crazy bitch and maybe I was, considering what I was about to do. I picked up my knife from the on top of the dash and got out the car. I slammed the door and concealed the knife in my black leather jacket. There wasn't a single soul in sight. As I made my way up the driveway, I didn't even have any second thoughts, which now I think was wierd. It was so inhuman to not have any stomach jitters or have a little hesitation at least. I guess the fact that I had been wanting to do this for a long time played a big role in this.
Before knocking on the door, I double checked that no one was around. Once I was sure that no one was around, I knocked on the door a few times. It took a few moments, but finally Tori's sister Trina opened the door. Now that was a real crazy bitch. She had her hair all rapped up in hair curlers and a green face mask.
"Jade, what are you doing here?" she asked. I didn't answer. Instead I walked straight to the kitchen and began to look around.
"Where's Tori?" I asked rather harshly. Trina, however, didn't seem to notice my tone. The girl was clueless, as usual.
"She's upstairs in her room, why?" I, again, didn't answer. I ran up the stairs to the second floor of the home. Luckily, I had been in the home so many times that I knew exactly where Tori's room was.
I approached her room slowly. Her door was open and I could hear the sound of the sitcom on TV and the sound of her pathetic girly laugh. Now, as I was literally a few feet away from my victim, was that the second thoughts poured into my head. Did I really want to do this? Oh hell yes I did! I entered the room.
As soon as Tori saw me, she smiled. I wondered why. Did she not feel as guilty as Beck or was she just trying to screw with me?
"Jade, I didn't know you were coming over. Did Trina let you in?" I did not answer her. Instead, I approached her, slowly. The smile slowly faded from her face. This brought out my evil smile.
"Jade, what are you doing?" Tori asked with worry in her voice. The bitch thought she knew exactly what I was capable of. But she never would've guessed what I was about to do. I pulled the knife out from my jacket. Her eyes began to literally shake when she saw it.
"Jade, what the heck are you doing? Is this some kind of joke?"
"No bitch, this is not a joke! I'm going to fucking slice you like fucking butter, you slut! Think you can cheat with my man and get away with it? Huh?" I was so ejoying myself, watching her shivering with fear, watching as she began to sweat.
"What do you mean I cheated with Beck? Jade, what are you talking about?" I was growing impatient with her denying it. I knew for a fact that she did. So, I lunged at her. I tried to bring the knife to her throat, but the skinny slut was stronger than I expected. She was holding my arm so that I couldn't bring the knife down.
"Trina! Trina! Help! Trina call the cops!" She bagan to panic. I used all my strength to bring the knife down, but she jerked away and we fell to the floor. Trina didn't show up, but I realized that it was only a matter of time before she did. With one final burst of strength, I brought the knife down and stabbed her in the throat. She began to gurgle blood. She couldn't breathe and she was gasping for air. Blood jetted out of the wound, but I wasn't done. Again, I stabbed Tori in the neck. Over and over I brought the knife down all over the bitch's body. I didn't stop not even after I was sure she was dead. I only stopped when my fingers began to hurt from gripping the knife too hard.
When I got up, I took one last look at her. She was unrecognizable. I had really messed her up. The tan carpet was soaked with blood and so was my jacket and jeans. I put the knife in my jacket and left the room. I calmly walked down the stairs and right passed Trina, who was sitting on the couch with headphones on and clipping her nails. She didn't even notice me leave. As I approached my car, my mind began to replay what had just occured over and over, along with the phone conversation. Once I was in my car, I smiled big. The deed was done. Tori was dead and it would be a long time before her dumb ass sister would even notice. Now, to deal with Beck. I did not plan on killing Beck, I was just going to tell him that his favorite little whore was dead. I searched frantically for my phone and then I realized I had destroyed it. Now I had no idea where Beck was. I knew he wouldn't be home. It was too early. Then a thought hit me. Andre! Andre would know where Beck was. I started up my car and drove over to Andre's house.
Andre lived with his grandmother, just a few minutes away from where Tori lived. When I arrived, I left the knife behind and exited my car. I rung the doorbell and Andre's grandmother opened up. She was even crazier than Trina.
"Hey Mrs. Harris," I said. She same outside and pushed me inside.
"Come in child, before they get you!" She was always frantic. Me and the others had pretty much gotten used to her craziness. I took a few steps into the house.
"Where's Andre?" I asked.
"Up in his room. Where else would he be?" She began to look all over the place as if she was looking for something. I decided to ignore her and headed up to Andre's room. Andre was sitting on his bed with his guitar when I got in. He was laughing. Cat and Robbbie were also here. Both Cat and Robbie had their backs to me, so Andre was the first to notice me.
"Hey Jade! Beck call you yet?" He sniggered like if he was concealing an inside joke. Cat and Robbie turned around and they began to snigger as well.
"Hey Jade, you uh, hear any news from Beck lately?" Robbie asked. I began to get suspicious.
"What the hell is going on? Where's Beck?" I asked. Andre put his guitar down and got up.
"He's on his way here. Why, did he uh, tell you something?" He was still talking like he knew something I didn't. It was getting me pissed the fuck off.
"Yeah, why? What the hell is going on?" I asked. They knew not to push me. Robbie turned to Andre.
"Should we tell her, or should we wait for Beck to tell her?" he asked. Tell me what? I was growing really impatient. I just wanted to know where Beck was.
"I think we should tell her," Cat said, "she's going to find out anyway." What the fuck was I going to find out? Andre laughed.
"Alright, alright. Look, as you know, Beck is starring in the new school play, you know, with Tori." Little did he know...
"Well, Beck was having trouble with the part where he lets Tori, who plays his love interest, know that he has cheated on her," Robbie continued. Yes, I did know that Beck and Tori were, emphasize were going to do a play together. I had hated the idea from the start, but I couldn't do anything about it.
"So, we helped Beck practice. Once he got it right, we decided he test it out...on you," Cat finished.
"WHAT?" I couldn't believe what she had just told me. Robbie and Andre began to laugh.
"The phone call you got from Beck, it was fake. It was just a little joke," Andre said.
The fact that what Beck had said had been a lie never really occured to me. I guess I was so paranoid that I didn't even consider it. Beck was always pissing me off on purpose. He loved making me angry. But had I just kill Tori for nothing?
"So that phone call from Beck...wasn't real?" I asked in shock. Andre shook his head.
"No, it was real. Just not true. It was a joke." he said. Now the facts began to hit me. I had murdered somebody. I was a criminal. If they found me, I would be thrown in jail. I hadn't even thought of any consequences. I was too...I don't know, angry?
"Was Tori in on it?" I asked. Robbie finally stopped laughing.
"No, we didn't want to ruin the realness. It would've ruined it if we told Tori before. Actually, Beck was going to tell Tori before he came here, wasn't he Andre?"
"Oh yeah! That's right! I totally forgot," Andre said. I was screwed. Beck would find Tori dead then he'd call the cops and then they'd come looking for me and I'd be locked up for life. This wasn't good.
"That wasn't cool! Why the fuck did you guys do this?" I was shouting at them. Andre backed up a little. Cat covered her ears.
"Dang, girl. Calm down, why you trippin'? It's not like you went over to Tori's and killed her." I didn't say anything. I guess this is what made him suspicious.
"You didn't do anything to Tori, did you?" Andre asked. I still didn't respond. I couldnt. I couldn't get any words out. Then, it appeared as if Andre noticed my jacket and jeans for the first time. "Is that blood? Jade, you didn't! Please tell me you didn't." I couldn't stand there another second. I bolted out of the room and out of the house. I ran straight to my car. I started it quickly and drove off. I had no idea where I was headed. All I knew was that I needed to get hell out of there...forever.
